I believe everyone in ISU is healthy and playing (could be wrong). BYU is playing very well right now.
OT: #3 ISU is down to K-State (9-11) by 16 with a minute to go
- Thread starter Beattheohiostate
- Start date
Hilton Magic = beat the shit out of the other team and watch the refs swallow their whistles.
ISU runs play and Jefferson fouled but ball rolls out. 2 FTs for ISU with 9.1 seconds left.
Make Make and we are tied. BYU no timeouts.

Byu getting absolutely HOSED by the refs.
BYU getting called for ticky tack contact the last ten minutes while ISU allowed to play incredibly aggressive defense
Hammered at one end and bailed out on the other. They’re not even trying to hide it.
That and BYU has 700 turnovers tonight. Wild Iowa state trailed all game and it’s in OT.
Iowa State has spent most of the season in the top ten. I mean… of course they did.
Don’t forget two sweet 16s and a conference tournament championship.
TJ has done more in four years than any Iowa coach since the 1980s
Rebounding has a large part of keeping BYU in it (at least in the final parts of reg and OT).
ISU 7-7 in last 14 games. They seem to lose about 1/3 of a place with each loss. Turdmardi still has then at a 2 seed after getting routed by Okie State.
Yeah, I was shocked to see them still in the top 10 after the loss against Ok State. Last night’s loss should drop them to the 12-15 range.
Not surprising. They built a statue for a .500 coach. They love mediocrity in Ames.
They were slotted as a #2 to start the week. Good chance they slip to a 3. Hilton is loud, no doubt about that. But is there a group of less sophisticated fans?
They’ve spent the entire season in the top 10.
TJ took over a 2 win team and has made the tourney it will be 4 years in a row and has racked up 25 wins against top 25 opponents in his short career here.
Prior to the extension he was making 1.5 million less than Fran.
You really think TJ has been mediocre?
Oh no, we've seen it. MSU has played that way for years. Once the refs call a couple of fouls, the coach complains that they are only calling fouls on you, then they swallow their whistles, and you can 'ramp up the defensive intensity'. Then they call touch fouls on the other team to 'keep things even'.

Which is why I have been on the outside of the "Fran Train" for a much longer time than most fans. Painfully obvious that Fran's style of BB will never win anything of importance under the officiating of CBB. They can talk about calling games differently every year and allowing freedom of movement, but it always progresses back to the norm in February and March.
Freedom of movement does not mean you are free to let the other team drive to the basket unhindered like when you play a Fran team. Physical hard nosed basketball is still acceptable and always will be. Houston, Iowa State, etc. Michigan State can play hard nosed defense but they still also push the ball at every opportunity. Complaining about being bullied on the court is an Iowa problem not the refs.
I realized that right after I posted so my apologies. I’m old and not tech savvy.
BYU with 7 straight, including 4-0 on the road - with two of those being ranked. (Or, overranked 🤣).
Comical to see clown fans brag on cyclone fanatic about how the players have adopted TJ's philosophy on never complaining about bad calls. Then Gilbert throws a tantrum and gets his 3rd T of the year.
